3.When you first arrive in Oxford,it may take a little while for you to find your way around.Some of the first things our students do when they arrive include finding a bike (most students in Oxford find cycling is the best way to go around),setting up a bank account,getting their computer and mobile phone working,finding their department,getting to know their college and working out the best places to socialize.One of the major events you will experience shortly after"coming up"to Oxford is matriculation.Matriculation is held at the University's Sheldonian Theatre and is the ceremony at which you are formally admitted to the university.
International students are invited to an orientation day at the start of the academic year.Sessions run throughout the day that will give you practical information about living and studying in the UK and introduce you to other graduate students from all over the world who are starting their studies at Oxford at the same time as you,as well as to current Oxford graduate students and staff who will be able to help and advise you.The day covers topics such as studying and learning in the Oxford system,University services,information on living in Britain and cultural differences,as well as addressing practical issues such as employment,immigration and visas,health and safety.You can choose which talks to attend and at the end of the day there is a social hour so you can meet fellow students.
Another good thing to experience early is college dining.Most colleges have a tradition of regular formal hall dinners,which consist of three or four courses,and the atmosphere of an evening out in a nice restaurant.On some of these occasions you can invite people around to your college for dinner and then they may return the favor.In this way,you can get to know people studying your own and other subjects at the same time as visiting many of the historical college grounds and dining halls.

分析 本文主要写了到牛津大学后,学生们要做的事情.
解答 28.C 细节理解题,从第一段"Some of the first things our students do…including finding a bike…"可知到了牛津大学后,骑自行车是首先可以处理的事情之一.而不是A选专业,B开QQ账户,D买新手机.所以答案选C.
29.B 细节理解题,从第二段"Matriculation is held …and is the ceremony at which you are formally admitted to the university."可知matriculation为正式的入学庆典.所以答案选B.
30.D 细节理解题,从第三段"The day covers topics such as studying and learning Oxford system and university services…such as employment,immigration and visas,health and safety.通过排除法可判断D正确. A.错在要学习和了解的是Oxford system而不是Cambridge system.B.错在提到了"insurance"而本文并未提及保险问题.C.跟"fellow students"见面是在Orientation Day结束之后的社交时间里可以做的事情.
31.A 推理判断题,从倒数二,三段"Most colleges have a tradition of regular hall dinners,…you can invite people around…可知很多大学都有自己的学生邀请其他大学学生到自己学校吃饭的传统,人之常情一般是要回请的,因此return the favor可以理解为"回请".
